Transport Tales

This is a guide for if you want to learn to drive. First of all you need to find a good driving school. I recommend driving schools uk, as they have a very high pass rate and they're run by the dsa. Next, once you have contacted driving schools uk (or whichever school youhave chosen) you need to arrange lesson times with your instructor. Usually lessons are only arranged a week or two in advance, but sometimes it may be possible to have a regular time. If you go to college, then your driving instructor may offer to start some lessons from your college, so you can have one when you have free lessons. Driving schools uk I know for a fact do this, and they also start lessons from your house, or maybe a place agreed by you and your instructor. For your first lessonyour instructor will probably drive you to a quiet and safe place, such as a cul-de-sac. Here, they will run through the basics with you such as wearing your seat belt and driving on the left side of the road. Then you will start to drive. Your instructor will show you how to change gear and where all the gears are. You will probably not get higher than 1st gear on your first lesson. You will learn how much you need to steer, and how hard to press the brake and the gas. Clutch control is also learnt now, and don't worry if you stall, because it is perfectly normal and expected. Indicators and mirror's are also taught now, as well as the MSM routine. The MSM routine stands for 'Mirror, Signal, Manoevure' and it's what you have to do when you're going to change direction like turning into a side road. Driving schools uk really drum this into you, and its very important to keep checking those mirrors! On your next few lessons you will start to build up confidence and maybe try your first small roundabout. You will drive short distances, and learn more essential things, such as when to change into third gear, and how to go down a hill in control. You will learn about putting the car into neutral at traffic lights, and the handbrake to secure the car. After a while you will learn how to reverse and do 3-point turn, parallel parking and reversing round a corner. Hill starts and big roundabouts will also be taught. Once you have mastered all of that, you will take your theory test. This is very simple, and then you can take your practical test. This is hard to pass, but with a lot of practice, anyone can do it! Good luck!
